Radial Heat Conduction

Specification of Radial Heat Conduction

• A
  small-scale accessory to introduce students to the principles of radial
  heat conduction, and to allow the conductivity of a solid brass disk to
  be measured


• Comprises a brass disk with a heater at the centre and a cooling water tube attached to the periphery.


• Six thermocouples measure the temperature gradient between the heated centre and the cooled periphery of the disk.


• Thermally insulated to minimize errors due to heat loss.


• Includes a water pressure regulator and a manually operated valve to control the flow rate.


• Includes
  an electronic proportioning solenoid valve to control the cooling water
  flow rate, a pressure regulator and a water  flowmeter.


• Heater power variable  up to 100 Watts.


• Water flow rate variable  up to 1.5 litres/ minute.


• Conduction disk is 110mm diameter and 3.2mm thick

Technical Details:

• The
  accessory comprises a solid disk of material which is heated at the
  centre and cooled at the periphery to create a radial temperature
  difference with corresponding radial flow of heat by conduction.


• Six
  K-type thermocouples are positioned at different radii in the heated
  disk to indicate the temperature gradient from the central heated core
  to the periphery of the disk. The radial distance between each
  thermocouple in the disk is 10mm. Quick-release connections allow rapid
  connection of the cooling tube to a cold water supply. A pressure
  regulator is incorporated to minimize the effect of fluctuations in the
  supply pressure. A control valve allows the flow of cooling water to be
  varied, if required, over the operating range of 0 -1.5 litres/min. The
  cooling water flowrate is measured by a turbine type flow sensor .
